This should ideally be an easy task but I am unable to figure out how to display data in a table with borders in android.
I have looked at this How can I create a table with borders in Android? and it kind of seems to be what I am looking for , but the number of rows and columns are not known before hand to be. I would have to create them on the fly. Does anyone know how to create a table in xml and then insert a row or column later?

In one of my Parse.com classes/tables I'd like to have a column where another class/table can be stored for each row. As an example:
An User table with a Clothes row, in which a table with the name and color of each of the user's items can be stored.
I've done this using relations but was wondering if there's a way to do it without having to create another table and making a relation to it, since that creates two tables (the table itself and the relation). I'm just trying to make it so Parse.com has the least stress so querys or any method can be done in the least time.
Thanks, if I didn't make myself clear please ask.
I want to create a table in my android application, in which the data will be added on the run time i.e. no. of columns and rows would be decided on the base of user input and user can later add more columns or rows in the Table.
So, using Table Layout of Android is not solving my purpose so far. And I created the table using Linear Layouts under other linear layout, but as I add any row or column I have to create the whole view again which is making the application very slow. So, what can be other approaches or how can I improve the functionality of my application.
Thanks in Adavance.
I am new in android application I want to create a table which will populate data from SQlite and show in a table with rows, columns, and then I want to edit, modify data in each column based on rows. I also want to disappear row after finishing modifications with click on a button. My question is, which layout should I use, Table layout or Grid view/layout????
I would suggest using a Table Layout. Although it uses table row as its child, you can actually use any View subclass as the child. Also, for your purposes, there is a lot of examples online for using a TableLayout and populating it with data from SQLite. A nice thing about the tableLayout is that it manages each row nicely in terms of sizing.
I have 2 columns of data in my database in Android application. I want to display this data via a table format in my application. Please help me.
For example, I have employeename and department coulmns in the database. I want to retrieve this data and show it in a table format like a table with 2 columns. One side employeename and next column their respective department in my Android application.
Unless you want user interact with the table, you can use webview and make it load table html. Advantage of this method is that you can make it as fancy as you want.
If you want interaction with the table, you'd better use listview with customized row layout, or even gridview would work too.
I am a beginner & my objective is to create a table in which data should be populated from database according to my query. How can I do it?I searched in google, but couldn't find much help.
First just design the Table layout using views.
Then from database get all the values like in form of a cursor.
Then write loop for cursor until it ll reach to the end record. and within that loop u just assign values to views which are present in TableLayout.
